The Registration and Marri•age Bills were both read a second time last night in the House of Commons. On the first of these measures little discussion took place. Sir R. PEEL put some questions to Lord J. RUSSELL, the answers to which completely satisfied the Right Hon. BP:ronet, that there could be no ob jection to the principle of the Bill, As matters stand at present, neither 'oirths nor deaths arc registered. The ba: f atsms and . burials which take place within tht pale of the Church are recorded; but when it is considered that the Church embraces not more perhaps than half the community, it must be evident that such a register is little better than a mockery, for any purpose of national utility. The Bill now before the House affords a complete remedy for the evil, by establishing a general system of registra tion without distinction of sects - . Every birth, mar tiage, and death occurring in the kingdom is to be in serted in the natioral register ; and to save the dignity or the scruples, as the case may be, of the members of the sect estP:olished by law, they are to be allowed, if they choose, to register in the old way also, at least as far a.z, regards baptisms and burials, with a slight modi fication in the case of marriages, in consequence of the proposed changes in the marriage law. Mr. GOULBURN and Sir ROBERT INGLIS made some nonsensical objections to the Marriage Bill, which were very soon disposed of b y Dr.LusIIING TON, who showed, i n a l um i nous and ablespeeeh, that the ma in objection urged against the measure, namely, that it would facilitate clandestine marriages, was ten times more applicable to the law as it exists at present, it being a well known fact that almost all such mar- riaes are celebrated by banns--the great security, according to such wise-acres as Mt. aouLuuttN, crainst that evil ! The parish-church might have , been a proper enough place to publish banns and other tnatters, when all the inhaliitants of the parish frequented it ; but is that the case now, when the' ' churches of the Establishment exhibit rail . c.o f empty, or at best half empty, pews &Ilay 2 Sir ROBERT PEEL stated thAt When the Bill went into Committee, he would decidedly oppose the clause which permitted those who objected to a religious cere mony to be married without it, a provi!Fion which he considered dangerous to the membets o the Chtorth, and not necesary to accomplish the obicet t,hc Bill which was to relieve the conscientious sctufr.s of the Dissenters. When pressed, however, by the ATTORNEY -61;NE 11A L to s t ate whether he \Y:Yuld wish the parties about to enter into the '.."..'arriage state to take an oath that they did not l':.ong to the Church, the Right Hon. Baronet et it was very difficult to answer the question. We apprehend it will be found no less difficult to make any alteration in this part of the measure that will satsfy Sir ROBERT'S scruples on this point. The Stafford Disfranchisement Bill was brought under the consideration of the House of Lords last night by the Marquis of CLANRICARDE, who moved the second reading, observing, in justification of his motion, that " it was impossible for any one to deny that the grossest bribery had prevailed at elections for the borough of Stafford. The Report of the Com mittee of the House of Commons which gave rise to the Bill, stated that the corrupt practices of the elec tors, and the extent of the bribery, were fully borne out by evidence ; and the Committee consequently came to a resolution, that it was their opinion that the borough of Stafford should cease to return Members to Parliament. That Report was followed up by a vote of the House. Their Lordships also appointed a Committee, the Report of which was, that bribery had been clearly established, not only at the last, but at previous, elections." And yet notwithstanding this, Lord LYNDIIURST opposed the second reading , of the Bill in question, on the plea that his con science would not permit him to disfranchise a bo rough without first hearing evidence on oath at the bar I It is surprising —if, indeed, anything that occurs in the Upper House could surprise us— what an affectionate, what an intense interest, their Lordships take in the cases of electioneering corrup tion. No matter how overwhelming be the proof of a borough's rottenness, they are always full of faith in its immaculate purity. Spotless themselves, they can not be brought to see spot or stain in others. The electors of Stafford have, it is well known, been no torious for their ready acceptance of bribes for forty years and upwards ; there has been no effort at con cealment ; votes have been bought and sold as pub licly as cattle in the market-place ; yet their Lordships are still unconvinced—still require to have proofs of the fact laid before them I Lord HOLLAND ob served " the present was not a judicial proceeding ; it was purely a legislative act of remedial application, which they were called upon to assent to." We have little doubt that it was this very word 44 remedial" that induced their Lordships to decide against the second reading of the Stafford Disfranchisement Bill. They have an instinctive horror of anything like a remedy. The Reform Bill was a remedy ; the Appropriation Clause was a remedy ; the Irish Constabulary Bill was a remedy ; the Local Courts Bill was a remedy : what wonder then that their Lordships entertain an in vincible dislike to the phrase I The discussion of last night is another proof how little is to be expected from the Honse of Lords, in the way of efficient re form. In the present instance, however, their reluc tance to do an' act of common justice, is of no great moment either one way or the other ; for Stafford is al ready, if not ♦irtually disfranchised, at any rate in a state of suspended animation, by the judicious refusal of the House of Commons to issue a writ for the borough. The Lewes Conservative Club had a dinner last Thursday, at which BEN D'ISRAELI, the Younger— but assuredly not, the Wiser—announced . .his intention, in the event of a new election, of starting as a candi date for the borough. Whatever other faults we may find with this young gentleman, want of effrontery and perseverance is assuredly not of the number. His speech at Lewes was an admirable specimen of assur ance, especially that portion of it wherein he talked of his perfect readiness " to die" in defence of the glorious Constitution, having previously stated;at Buckingham, where he was rejected, and more recently at Taunton, where he was also rejected, that there was no Consti tution left, for a patriot, like himself, to die for. Of course the Reformers of Lewis, while they do justice to Mr. D'ISRAELI'S powers of face, will do equal jus tice to his consistency, and refuse to have any political connection with him. He is not the wood out of which a statesman is hewed. He may be competent enough to string fine sentences together, and furnish the trunk makers and pastry-cooks with materials for their business, in the shape of " Vyvian Greys" and " Revolutionary Epics ;" but as for playing the part of a Legislator, he has no more talent for such a vocation than LISTON has for tragedy. We should as soon expect to see the Bishop of EXETER play Columbine, as Mr. D'ISRAELI take his seat in the House of Commons, There is no real friend of the Church, who has de voted any length of time to the examination of the causes of the increasing growth of religious dissent in this country, and more especially to the widely-diffused spirit of aversion in which the Hierarchy is regarded, but must have come to the conclusion that, without a radical reform of our whole ecclesiastical institutions, it will be shortly impossible to prevent-the total destruc tion of the Establishment. It may serve the sinister purposes of time-serving promotion-hunters ; it may fall in with the fears or the fancies of bigoted and gloomy fanatics ; it may correspond with the impres sions of fierce enthusiastic zealots ; it may gratify the vanity of the titled great—save the constitutionally in dolent a world of troublesome reflection—and rouse the dormant prejudices of the working classes to shout out lustily " Thieves in the Sanctuary !"—" Ra dicals I"—" Robbers !"—" Atheists !"—" The Church is in danger !" There may be indeed a great temporary excitement created : crowds may run in all directions, crying out " Where ! where !" almost mad dened• at the thought of the horrid profanation ; but while they are ignorant that the desecrators of the sanctuary are the priests—that the robbers of the shrine are those who have been appointed to guard its sacred treasures—that the scandal is but the natural consequence of an inbred and inherent evil in the system—they must remain powerless for any efficient purpose of defence. Now, such is the condition of the Church of England at the present moment. The wolves that devour her flocks, and devastate her pas tures, are clothed in the goodly garments of shepherds. Her enemies wear the badges of her spiritual de fenders ; and her most bitter and relentless foes are Otaily protesting, that there is nothing under Heaven '3O beautiful as the punctures which they themselves have.raised upon her countenance. Her real friends xe neither ignorant of, nor blind to, her imperfec tions ; her pretended friends, but real enemies, affect t o see in h e r very weaknesses the strongest ev id ences of her Oren, ath—in her errors the most irrefragable THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, APRIL 1(3, 1436 proofs of her her dAnef the dthcistt of her assAilaiits - --iiot tale Canseque.nce of her tardinas in the of Reform. Those best acquainted seltintentS not call in question the sinc'e'ritt, attachment to the C"nureh. So long as the nation prefer a State-religion, we know of none under whose sway Dissenters of every. denomination could live so peace fully, and in such Christian union, as the Church of En< , ! , : . nttlt We ad hapy to find that we bola these opinieins in common with men whose literfkry tabolirs; and eii cellent private lives-, to be ranked with the chief 'Okitattents of this age and country. Among these we may be allowed to mention Mr. WALTER SAVAGE LANDOR, who has tAlt-d: , isetl, form of a pamphlet, lf.!t‘etal letters to Lord MELBOURNE on the subject of reforming the Church. This pamphlet is entitled " Letters of a Conservative," and such they certainly are, in the true sense of that much-abused phrase. Mr. LANDOR is indeed a Conservative of the true stamp—a Conservative of the purity, not the pelf• of time Church. Born, as he says himself, in the year 1775 ; educated at Oxford, under the care of three excellent scholars, and truly pious clergymen of the Church of England ; the patron of three livings ; and the inheritor of entailed property ;—it would in deed be contrary to the natural order of things to sup pose Mr.. LANDOR indifferent to the welfare of the Church. Add to these considerations, an untainted private life ; studious and secluded habits ; the absence of a political bias ; and that regard for the good opinion of his fellow-countrymen which is common to all truly great and good men—and there remains nothing to establish his claims to the right of being listened to with reverence by every man who takes an interest in the happiness of the people of this country. Hear, then, what this least suspi cious of witnesses says of the Established Church : " We hear of systems working well; but we can only judge of English Episcopacy working well by what we have seen her wear out. She has worn out her Church upon both feet— upon Ireland and Wales. If we wish to prevent her from doing herself any further mischief—than habitual sloth, plethory, and passion, have been accumulating within her ; if we wish to withhold her from the scorn, contumely, and blows of the people, we must confine her strictly at home, feed her more sparingly, mix a little water in her goblet, arid keep a vigilant eye over her, that she be liable—in her enfeebled and unwieldy condition—to no worse and more phagendemick distemper, from the ardour of her profligate lovers." The last sen tence occurs at the bottom of the seventh page. That it may be fully understood, we shall quote one from the fifty-first page, which is altogether an excellent commentary upon it. " The present Fathers in God are somewhat like the Elders who solicited Susanna : the more they admire her purity, the more urgent arc they for her favours." Mr. LANDOR states that lie was preparing these Letters, when he saw the Second Report of the Ec clesiastical Commissioners for the Reform of the Church. This Report gave some offence to several of the Tory organs. It was too liberal for them ; and, moreover, recognized the principle that Church property might be dealt with by Parliament—a most impious, sacrilegious recognition. The true Conserva tive came to a conclusion equally condemnatory of the report, but for a very different reason. He says that " nothing more illusory, or more impudent than this second report, ever was laid before Parliament." The opinions of such a man respecting such a measure, are worthy of earnest attention : " Is it possible that the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of London can recommend so trifling a defalcation of their revenues, as two thousand pounds from seventeen thou sand in the one case, and from twelve thousand two hundred in the other—even supposing that, by contingencies, their benefices never rise higher? Is the Archbishop unaware that Drake, Blake, Marlborough, Wolfe, Nelson, Wellington, all united, did not share among them in the course of their vic tories, victories that saved their country and many others from slavery and ruin, two-thirds of this stipend ? Is the Archbi shop ignorant that the Pope himself, whose power rests upon splendour, cannot command for private purposes 15,000/. a year? Will the people of England see with calmness, with forbear ance, with endurance, this sacrilegious rapacity ? Is there no danger that they may break the claw they cannot pare, and suffocate the maw they cannot satisfy ? And we are told, for sooth, that the dignitaries of the Church are ready to make sacrifices This is the language ; yes, to Inge sacrifices Gold then is the sacred thing ! Arid what are they ready to give up ? That only which they never can spend decorously, and which was entrusted to them as administrators, not as owners. Even of this, how small is the portion they are willing to surrender ! There are portions of the British empire, where three hundred clergymen, professing, and in defatigably teaching, the same faith as the Archbishop of Canterbury and Bishop of London, do not share among them, with equal abilities, equal virtues, so large a sum of money as these two prelates." This extract calls for no commentary upon it. There is nothing abstruse, nothing recondite in its reasoning. It is addressed to the understanding of every man who has sense enough to know that he wears a pocket, and is liable to pay taxes. We can barely afford room for another extract. It is very different from the last ; but so excellent in its way that we could not think of excluding it. A better whet for the appetite of a tithe-hunting parson was never provided : "An extraordinary case was brought to-day before the Mayor of Bristol. A gentleman in black had taken a place in a coach for Bath, had paid his fare, and was putting his foot on the step. Suddenly the coachman of another vehicle came up to him, and, taking off his hat, said civilly, " For Gloster, Sir, twenty shillings."' " lam going to Bath,' replied th gentleman in black. " No matter, Sir, twenty shillings, if you please.' " But lam going to Bath, and the fare is much less.' " Yon chap's fare, Sir, may be less than mine—he has not such nags as I have, and a short and easy road he makes of it. But lam a man of few words, Sir—two are enough be tween you and me—twenty shillings arc good English.' " On some further remonstrance and hesitation, the coach man, strong as he is civil, took by the arm the gentleman in black, and said most obligingly, You may go to Baths and welcome, Sir ; only I don't drive on that road, and I want nothing from you but the established fare.' " I know not which of the two made the first proposal to go before the chief magistrate of the city ; but they went be fore him, and there also the loudest complaint was made by the gentleman in black ; the other saying only, sometimes in soliloquy and sometimes to the mayor, He sha'n't nick me, for all that.' " Having heard both parties with equal impartiality and attention, his worship said to the gentleman in black, " My dear Sir, all these people have their lawyers who are ready to show cause against us ; you may spend a few hundreds, or so, but I sadly fear the sovereign must be forth coming. Mine, lam sorry to say, is not the surest court to render you any assistance.' The gentleman in black threw down his money with much indignation, crying, Bad luck to you.' ' No, no, master ! it has had enough of that already,' said the coachman, making it fly off his thumb-nail, c a t c hi ng i t, pocketing it, and wishing the gentleman in black a pleasant journey, and plenty of sport in Bath. " The mayor begged the favour of the applicant's name, who immediately drew from his pocket an elegant little case of damson-coloured leather, with lyres and cherubs round the border, and opening it, produced so glossy a card that it would almost have deprived of eye-sight a whole family of Persian princes. On this card , in s p ite of its efful gence, were le gible, in such letters as would have rendered an old missal of inestimable price, the words— " THE REVEREND BARNARD BRAY, " REGENT'S PARK. " It appeared that the reverend gentleman, although a native of Ireland, which country had likewise the honour of his education, had been visiting for the first time this benefice of Balamacralogoeli. " Sir, said he to the may or, I have been over to see what I can do with 'em.

The most absurd arguments are employed in sup port of the present tithe system. Several writers have the audacity to contend that the Dissenters themselves are favourable to tithes in their present shape, and for their present legal purposes ; others modestly intimate that without tithes there would be no toleration, con sequently the Dissenters owe their very existence to them. To institute 'comparisons between the common sense method of supplying our temporal wants and the most convenient way of procuring spiritual consolation is denounced as most impious ; because, say the To . ries, men never send for a lawyer or a physician ex cept in cases of extreme danger—a principle whicl cannot safely be admitted by any true Christian as re Bards the Ministers of the Gospel. Now this is all very hollow. Men send for a doctor when they want him—the most orthodox believers do no more with re spect to the clergy. Besides, what right has a parti cular priest to remuneration if he never render, nor be required to render, any service ? We fear that the defenders of the ecclesiastical system make a sad mistake, when they dwell so emphatically upon the extreme toleration of the Es tablished Church. It is true the Church is tolerant ; but we presume to think, rather from indifference to all religion, than from any extraordinary regard for the scruples of tender consciences. But from whatever cause this proceeds, where is the great merit of it in this particular instance ? The Dissenters are tolerant without tithes. The Society of Friends persecute no person for religious opinions, and yet they receive no thing from the State. What then is there, except tithes, to prevent the Church from being as tolerant as she is said to be, without claiming any particular merit ? But it may be answered she has the power to persecute—yet she fails not to set an example of toleration to other churches. Granted : but why expose her to unnecessary temptation merely to praise her for her resistance ? She is tolerant despite of her tithes and her state-trappings. We would reward her virtue, by placing her out of the reach of further temptation. We have received a file of New York Papers to the 25th ult. The substance of them will be found in the article of our City Correspondent. The accounts from the North of Spain are very favourable. The latest advices from Santander and Vittoria are to the 3d inst. The British Legion was then in excellent condition. The French Papers of Thursday have been re ceived ; but they bring no intelligence of importance. In the Chamber of Deputies no subject has been mooted for - several days, save such as had reference to the tariff customs, vicinal roads, beet-root sugar duties, and other matters connected with the internal admi nistration of the country : PARIS, APRIL 14.—M. de Brignolles has just been ap pointed Ambassador from Sardinia to Paris. This is a choice which cannot fail to give pleasure. M. de Brignolles was Counsellor of State under the Empire. In 1821 he was Am bassador from Sardinia at Madrid, but he fell into disgrace with Charles Felix. His rccal to public affairs is a good omen for the refugees. The Society for the Abolition of Slavery has just presented to the Chamber of Peers a petition which seems likely to produce an interesting debate. At its last meeting in which M. Odillon Barrot presided, and where Messrs. de Lamartine de Tracy, de Larochefoucault, Robert Isambert, and other hono rable deputies were present, the Society received a petition addressed to the Chamber for the general emancipation of Negroes, by the men of colour of Martinique, who are elec tors eligible, and persons of consideration in that island : this step is the more important, because this class of the Colonial population has hitherto been considered as the auxiliary of the Whites maintaining the system of slavery. The Algerine Moniteur of the 31st March, received to-day, contains the sitting of the Council of the 25th March, in which M. Realier Dumas presided, when the Moorish Councillors took the oaths of allegiance to the King of the French, laying their hands on the Elboukhari, and the Israelites on the Pentateuch. The President closed the sitting with an address to the new Councillors. The same Journal says the Marshal left Algiers on the 28th March, to place himself at the head of the troops that are going to make an excursion in the province of Titeri. —Mes sager, April 14.

Sir—l request that you will rectify the error in your paper of this morning, which substitutes my name for that of Col. Rushbrooke, as the person who proposed the rejection of the Eastern Counties' Railway Bill. I not merely voted but pre sented several petitions in favour of a Bill most important to the interests of my constituents, and even more so to the country at large, in the greatly increased facility of communi cation it will present, through our eastern ports, with the north of Europe. I have the honour to be, your obedient servant, FRINCIS ROBERT BONHAM. 25, Dover-street, April 15. [We regret that in our observations of yesterday on the above Bill, we were led into error by the debate in the Morning Post, which we had casually taken up at the time by mistake. It will be seen, by reference to the Report in The Sun, that the name of the Hon. Member who moved the amendment was unknown. We feel bound, in justice to Mr. BONHAM, to make this correction, which we do promptly and without solicitation.—ED. SUN.] The Lady of General de Lacy Evans has returned to Paris, and is at the Bedford Hotel, Rue St. Honore. The Post is unjust towards the Duke of Welling ton and Sir Robert Peel. It is too much, because they have not countenanced as yet the five shilling associations, slily to insinuate that they are not stanch friends to the Crown. The expenses of defending Salmon, the Morison's pill-sellor, convicted of manslaughter at the Old Bailey, amounted, it is said, to nearly 4,0001., in consequence of the great distance from which so many of the witnesses for the defence had to be brought. On Monday morning last, a female child in Orr strept, Paisley, of about three years of age, was standing near the fire, when the flames caught its clothing, and before assist ance could be given, it was so much scorched, that life was despaired of.

Our arrivals this mottling are the French and Hamburg mails, with ship letters from Dowrinica, Madeira, Philadelphia, Jamaica, and Sierra Leone ; fronti Bombay, December 25 ; the Cape of Good hope, February fP; and New York, March d 4: Tne Montreal Papers say, that the Constitutionalists of Quebec were to meel i tollsidet the present state of afLirs, and more particularly the following paragraph : " We have at least the satisf 4 aCt?on of seeing that the inha bitants of this province, of every creed anA of every origin, arc satisfied with the share they have in the proviatial representa tion, and our fellow subjects of the less numerous class in par ticular, acknowledge that we have endeavoured to insure to all the inhabitants of the country, a participation in its political and natural advantages. We perceive in this happy union another guarantee of good Government, and an antidote against the tortuous policy which it is sought to support by unequal distinctions." By the packet ship from New York, accounts have been re ceived to the 25th ult., which represent the people of the United £4tates as labouring under apprehensions on the sub ject of slavery. Those who seek its abolition will not desist from pursuing their object ;_ while those who are ranged on the opposite side cannot endure the presentation of any peti tion against slavery. In other respects the Republic is in a very flourishing state. The price of flour and cotton is higher in 'New York than it is in Liverpool. The late fire has caused such a demand for labour, that workmen obtain two dollars per day. Bliazit. AND PERU. —We have received a file of Rio Papers to the sth of Feb. The revolution in Rio Grande was sub siding. The Legislative Assembly of the Province adhere to their allegiance to the Don Pedro family. Commander Jewet sailed for New York to purchase two armed steam boats, and some gun-boats, ammunition, &c., to be sent with all possible expedition to Para. From Peru, news had reached Rio, that Santa Cruz arrived at Areguifa with 2,000 men, having left 11,000 at Casco. He was joined by Obregosa with 2,000 Peruvians. Salavery's army was in retreat.

Spanish Active Bonds are all alive, owing to two import ant events—First, the advertisement of the Spanish dividend in the morning journals ; secondly, the speech of Lord Mel bourne in the House of Lords, in relation to the Spanish war, in which he states it was their imperative duty to put an end to the war, upon every consideration of national policy, and even of humanity. By this important admission from his Lordship, it is considered that the French Government will not be backward in aiding ours, to accomplish that desirable event.

HALF-PAST ONE. POSTED AT THE NoirTir AND SOUTH AMERICAN COFFEE HOUSE.—STORM IN UPPER CANADA.—" It seems that Sir Francis Head his been enabled to sail in smooth water but a very brief period of his political voyage in Upper Canada. When he commenced his adminisiration all the liberal tongues and pens were loud in his praise, and their joy at his accession That which was felt to the Government was only equalled by on the retirement of Sir John Colborne. 01 opening a To ronto paper this morning, however, we were sta.. - tled by the following annunciation in the words and letters followir,j, viz. : " Highly important !—Dissolution of the Executive Cou:noil, by the resignation of all its Members, which was acceptbid late on Saturday afternoon. Messrs. Robinson, Markland, Wells, Dunn, Baldwin, and Rolph, no longer Executive Councillors; and Sir Francis and his Algerine Government exposed." Accompanying this annunciation is a long and furious com mentary, filled with abuse of the new Government, but afford ing no direct information as to the cause of the resignations. Only one paper was received with the proceedings, which was sent to Government.

We have the best authority for stating that letters have been received by parties of the highest respectability in the monetary circles here, announcing that one of the largest joint-stock banks in this kingdon is about to increase its capi tal from two to ten millions. At present we do not deem our selves at liberty to point out more directly the highly-respect able and well, conducted establishment to which we allude ; but we trust that, if they do follow out this determination, their future issues will be regulated by the increase or decrease of the commerce of the country, rather than by regulating them by the plenty or scarcity of gold, or the mock rule of the Exchange--two principles of governing the circulating medium of a State like this, than which nothing could be de vised more mischievous in character to • the welfare and secu rity of the commercial, maritime, manufacturing, or shipping interests. This establishment, by pursuing their present de termination, will prove a most formidable opponent to the Bank of England, and convert its irksome, and, to itself, dan gerous duty of supporting the best interests of the empire, when they most need it, into a mere sinecure. , This an nouncement has been so confidentially made that Its purport was not generally known, but it is the opinion of the best in formed that this operation will certainly tend to reduce the dis count transactions of the Bank of England. We find to-day, that in addition to the fact that gold was leaving this country under the final operations of th Slavery Abolition Act, the scarcity of money has created also a demand for the New York market, and that the agents of Don Carlos have suc ceeded in transmitting a large.amount to the frontiers'of Spain. —Morning Herald. There were yesterday exposed to sale in Covent garden Market, but in small quantities, English green peas, soma imported from Portugal, strawberries, new potatoes, French beans, some good-sized cucumburs, and asparagus. The lace trade, this week, has not revived. The report from the late fair, at Frankfort, is very favourable, and we hope this will lead to a demand from some of the foreign houses. The consumption of net is regular, but it is not cer tainly to the extent which at this period of the year we might expect it to have reached.—Nottingham Review. On the day of the Epiphany, at Moscow, the con secration of the waters takes place every year. A temple is erected for this purpose on the frozen surface of the Moscowa, and a hole is made in the ice. The clergy then bless the water, and the baptism of newly-born infants, by immersion in it, takes place. This year, a St. Petersburg Paper observes, not a single child perished from it, although the cold was 24 degrees at the time. We understand that her Majesty the Queen Dow ager of Naples, mother of his Highness the Prince of Capua, Is expected to pay a visit shortly to this country on matters relating to the marriage of her second son with Miss Penelope Smyth. The Prince and his lady live rather secluded, and pay few visits. A brother of the lady, a Mr. Smyth, has joined them during the week. MARRIAGE ABROAD.—Yesterday, at Paris, was married at the British Embassy, the Baron de Braidenback, of Darmstadt, to Charlotte, daughter of Admiral Sir Charles Qgle, Bart., of Worthy, Hants. Tha bride is neice to the Hon. Mrs. Talbot, of Malahide, and to Lady Deere.
